Answer to Question 1

B
Bursitis occurs after overuse, with pain in the joint on activity with no erythema and little, if any, swelling. Dislocations are very painful and the pain is spread all over the shoulder. The shoulder also looks misshapen in a dislocation. Rotator cuff tear would prevent the patient from abducting his shoulder.

Answer to Question 2

A
MOPP and ABVD are chemotherapy treatment protocols using a combination of four drugs giv-en concurrently. MOPP is the acronym for the drugs mechlorethamine, vincristine (Oncovin), procarbazine, and prednisone. ABVD is the acronym for the drugs doxorubicin (Adriamycin), bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine. This treatment protocol is usually used for stages III and IV of the disease.
